Warren Posted November 26, 2004 Report Share Posted November 26, 2004 Waterchanges largely depend on the stocking level of your tank and how clean you want it. Keep in mind how you'd feel if you were locked in a room and never had the air changed. It would get pretty unpleasant very quickly. Treat your fish the way you'd like to be treated if you exchanged places... A good start is as mentioned above, 25% once a week. Light loading and maybe you can get away with 25% once a month. Heavy loading and maybe 50% once a week might do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dan_from_nz Posted November 27, 2004 Report Share Posted November 27, 2004 remember when doing water changes not to just dump a whole lot of water in as the parameters wont be equil, add the new water slowely particulaly if the water is colder or warmer or a different ph than the water in the tank Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
